In 2013 The Fed Bought 150% More Treasurys Than All Foreigners Combined

Now that we have the full history of foreign Treasury purchases in 2013, we know the following: in December 2012 total US paper held by foreigners was $5,573.8 billion; one year later it rose to $5.794.9 billion or a $221 billion increase. So how does this look in the context of QE? In the past year, courtesy of the Fed's $1 trillion in TSY and MBS purchases, Ben Bernanke purchases some $552 billion in Treasurys, or about 150% more than all foreigners combined! Suddenly the need for MyRA is becoming all too clear...

And as a bonus chart, here are the top holders of US paper as of December 31, 2013.

LIke I said yesterday, it's all about flow. To keep the ponzi going, you have to keep the flow going. The Fed's plan is to control the bond market. They control 1/3 now, and have effectively neutralized the bond vigilantes. The graphs above prove the point. TPTB plan was exposed yesterday with the China treasury dump and Belgium treasury buy. The Fed is using proxy Central Banks, and together they probably have reached the 51% threshold. It's game over at that point. ZIRP forever. Credit Default Swaps are meaningless because TPTB just ignore the laws, or write new ones, just like they did in Greece and Cyprus. They have engineered the system to avoid the next Lehman event. We have a centrally planned economy now... planned by the Central Banks of the world. It's all about monetizing the debt with no risk because once you control the bond market, AND the printing press, you have perpetuated the ponzi. Debt is their god, and the world is going to be their serfs in their New Feudal World Order. Controling governments by controling their debt and thereby dictating how the govt security systems will be used to enforce the entire scheme. The countries that don't play along, will get wacked. It's the mafia way. Learn to think like a sociopath banker, and you understand exactly what they are trying to do.

This stuff goes back centuries, when Monarchs and Popes granted the Money Changers (Bankers) the ultimate power over their nations -- w/o realizing it at the time.

We've born the fruits of their sins ever since, and most leaders and >99.9% of the populace still remain ignorant of these facts.

How ironic that, for all their "Divine Right of kings" and "Divine Inspiration" of Popes, they did not see through the scam*. Where was "Divine" Guidance and Inspiration in all this?

Clearly the natural and supernatural entities were asleep at the switch. But this holds true only if you (still) believe in the 'supernatural' stuff, that is. Else (per Occam's Razor) the simpler explanation is that "Smarter and more cunning brains beat less smart and less cunning brains". Same as it ever was, same as it ever will be.

"I care not what puppet is placed upon the throne of England to rule the Empire on which the sun never sets. The man who controls Britain's money supply controls the British Empire, and I control the British money supply."- Baron Nathan Rothschild, 1820

Sounds easy enough - Abolish the FED - default on the paper they have bought - deduct it from National Debt and there you go - then claw back all of the money from the banksters where the FED has bailed them out of their bad loans and we would become a flush nation.

In order to pretend that reality isn't real? In order to line the pockets of a few at the expense of all? To create an unsustainable Vegas-style skimming operation wherein counterfeit value is dispensed by a priveledged few to the populace at a controlled rate in order to maximize the time the sting operation lasts? Take your choice. The Federal Reserve Act is all of this and more.

When the Federallies pull a Hank Paulson on stocks they won't have any trouble selling those bonds... Just look what happened recently with just a few days of stock correction. They can't keep stocks up when the bond market is on the line.

No wonder we need the DOD, NSA, CIA and the MIC. W/o us leaning on, or beating up the "Weak Dominos", the world would tell us and our Ponzi currency to FOAD.

And as the world (BRiC+EMs) is getting ready to do just that, we are front-running them with counter-measures: National Uprisings, Civil Strife/Wars and Regime Changes at all pivotal places.

And, given the aging demographics and rapidly rising liabilities in the West, the US and EU have little choice but to trash the other economies and currencies -- just to keep the USD and EUR afloat, and prevent a massive "flight of capital".

No surprise here. Treasuries are mis-priced because of the Fed. There are foreign buyers for treasuries, but only if rates go higher. And in addition, with the Fed suppressing gold prices, the Fed is giving foreign buyers an attractive asset at a very good price. Over-priced treasuries? Or under-priced gold? Hmmmm.
